ANALYSIS:
They may not cause sleepless nights for opponents, but Elon, as a slightly above-average team, cannot be totally ignored. They are ranked #158 (out of 351) in the most recent Haslametrics ratings and have a record of 18-14. Of the 10 schools in the Colonial (average ranking 173.3), they're currently ranked as our #6 team in the conference.

If there is a strength for Elon this year, it's probably on the defensive end of the court. The team is rated 120th in defensive efficiency, allowing fewer than 100 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. Elon is a superior unit when it comes to preventing opponents from getting to the foul line. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 20.69 vs. AO, they are currently rated eighth in the country in that category. Elon also owns a pretty good track record against teams that shoot the three. They rank 57th in the NCAA in defensive three-point percentage, allowing AO to make just 32.9% of their attempts from afar. If Elon does exhibit a noticeable weakness on the defensive end of the floor, it'd likely be the team's propensity to allow too many shot attempts per trip. The squad has a rating of 87.83 in defensive field goal attempt rate vs. AO, which ranks fourth-worst in college basketball.

Elon doesn't perform as well offensively as they do defensively. The team is ranked 185th in offensive efficiency, scoring about 100 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Elon struggles to draw fouls and earn opportunities at the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of just 22.84 vs. AO, they are 323rd in the overall rankings for that category.
